Stanford's David Shaw and Oregon State's Mike Riley denied having any interest in becoming USC's next head coach.

The Pac-12 weekly teleconference became a one-stop shop for coaches to refute interest in the USC head coaching position Tuesday, with David Shaw of Stanford and Mike Riley of Oregon State each shooting down speculation they might be on any short list to fill the vacancy.

Shaw is 27-4 in three seasons leading the Cardinal, with two BCS bowls appearances and one Pac-12 championship on his resume. Shaw, 41, has also been suggested as the man to toughen up Texas if the Longhorns decide to part ways with head coach Mack Brown. However, Shaw is a Stanford alum and his father, Willie, also coached on The Farm.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Chip Kelly, who was suggested by NFL Media analyst Gil Brandt as a potential option for USC if Kelly cannot adjust to the professional ranks after enjoying unprecedented success at Oregon, delivered an emphatic "no" when asked about that column and a possible return to the Pac-12.
